    Haven't explored all the features yet, so right now the set up with it is pretty simple. But so far we have had no issues and it works great with our in-ceiling speakers and record player.

    Great AVR that will not break the bank!

    Found this as a great AVR that will not break the bank. The new models as of 2021 work great if you are looking to use HDMI switching for 8K or 4K 120. Power output is great for most home user looking to get into the base Atmos setup or need the second zone. With supporting HDR10, HDR10+, Dynamic HDR and Dolby Vision it should support most users video needs. But the reason that I really needed the X series over the S series is the upgrade from Audyssey to Audyssey XT room correction. I found a very big difference in the sound with room correction between the two version with the XT making a big improvement in the sound.

    So far it’s a great piece of equipment. Glad I spent a little more and got a mid level receiver. Seems to be high quality. Still new, hope it lasts for many years.

    Good receiver BUT it turns on by itself for no reason we can figure out. Volume is much louder when streaming than when using the cable. We simply don't understand how to make proper adjustments as to avoid messing up the entire system. This receiver was a replacement for another which was turning off the entire system randomly.
